Can I place widgets inside post or page content or are can they only be inserted into sidebars etc?

There are shortcodes included with the add-on that allow you to insert widgets into post and page content. With these you can easily specify which page on your site display the widgets as well as specifying the location within the page where the widget should be displayed.

My site has far too many questions to display in a widget. Will the Add-on handle the display of my questions in a way that makes sense?

Yes. There are a few different options for how this can be done. The quickest is to simply limit the number of items that are displayed in the widget. Then the widget will choose the number of items set at random to display.

I would like to get a clearer picture of the changes I am making to sidebar widgets, is there any preview option?

There is in fact a way to get a more live view of changes you’re making to widgets appearing in the sidebar of your page. Either while in Appearance → Widgets click on the Customize button on the top left. Or while on a page displaying the sidebar widget click on the Customize option in the WordPress menu bar at the top.

Then click on the Widgets tab on the left to make changes to the Widget and see the effect in real time.
